The Board of Regents is pleased to present a KUDOS award to Abbey Henrichs, Director of Events at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
Madison Kihm, Events Planner in UNO’s Office of Strategic Marketing and Communications, says that "Abbey exemplifies excellence by transforming ideas into unforgettable experiences. Through collaboration with a variety of campus partners, she not only brings their event concepts to life but consistently exceeds expectations, creating impactful and memorable moments that elevate the success of everyone involved."
Abbey actively contributes to the success of both campus events and Omaha Athletics through her dynamic collaboration.
Kihm says that while she “balances her day-to-day responsibilities with the additional demands of athletic events, she exemplifies dedication and teamwork, strengthening connections across the university community."
As a proud UNO alum, Abbey embodies the Maverick Spirit.
Kihm says, “She carries that Maverick strength, resilience, and independent thinking into her daily work. When faced with challenges during events, she channels her creativity and determination to adapt and ensure each event reflects the vision and needs of her clients, showcasing the true essence of what it means to be a Maverick."
With Abbey today are her husband, Grady Henrichs; her parents, Ken and Deb Young and her mother and father in-law, Wendy and Todd Henrichs.
Please join me in thanking Abbey for her dedication to the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
